Thanks everyone! Moemoe is correct, Taos only has a small casino but it's non-smoking, so there's that. If you drive another hour or so south, you'll get to Espanola, where you'll find a couple more casinos and then heading further south toward Santa Fe, you'll find 3 more casinos, the best of which is Buffalo Thunder. That's a beautiful property with a Hilton hotel, a great fine dining restaurant and a large casino with a wide range of slots. Plus, a golf course!

NM casinos have huge amounts of penny machines, Stephanie. You'll find a small amount of dollar machines but hardly any $.02, $.05, or even quarter machines.

Most casinos have tables games. Because they are all NA casinos, there is no alcohol on the gaming floors, although most casinos do have a bar but you cannot take drinks out of the bar. You can have all the soft drinks you'd like, however!

I'm in Albuquerque, which has the largest casinos since it's the population center for the state. I've got 4 fairly large casinos within a 20 minute drive of my home, which, as we all know, can be a good thing or a bad thing, depending on the slot gods! . They're all good about offering decent free play, food offers, and free room offers.

Chimayo in the fall is gorgeous, northern NM is definitely the prettiest part of my state!
